Jiangjun Island Introduction

The local residents became wealthy in the past by collecting coral, leading to a prosperous community. The streets of the fishing port are lined with small houses, exuding a port city charm, earning it the nickname "Little Hong Kong." Just one nautical mile away from Wang-an Island is Jin-gong Ao Island, which is only one-fifth the size of Wang-an Island but has a population close to that of the main island. The residents of Jin-gong Ao Island also became wealthy from collecting coral and pen shells in the past, resulting in a thriving community with many buildings, showcasing a port city vibe different from other islands, thus earning the nicknames "Little Hong Kong" and "Little Kaohsiung." Nowadays, most residents make a living through fishing. On the western side of the island, there is a General Temple and Yong'an Palace, as well as Mazu Temple, which are centers of faith for the villagers. The decorations and inscriptions within these temples reflect the historical relationship between their renovations and the prosperity and decline of the fishing industry. Around Jin-gong Ao Island, there are many other islands. On the eastern coastline is "Sail Island," named for its sail-like shape, which connects to Jin-gong Ao Island at low tide, making it a typical tidal island, referred to as “Jiangmen Island.” There is also the uninhabited "Wang You Island," which boasts beautiful coral reef ecosystems, perfect for exploring the underwater world at the renowned snorkeling spot, Jin Gua Zai Reef, and experiencing camping away from the hustle and bustle on a deserted island! Traveling south by boat from Jin-gong Ao Island leads to Toujin Island, an ecological reserve with a unique landscape of half yellow volcanic pumice and half black basalt. On its marine platform, there are many tide pools resembling small ponds, hosting various intertidal organisms. The ecology of these tide pools changes with the rising tides. In addition, many different species of terns, such as the Crested Tern and the Whiskered Tern, reside on the island, where migratory birds stop. You can observe these terns from a distance by cruising nearby!
